WIDE BELT NO LONGER WORN

Fashionable Garniture of the Moment Is Exceedingly Narrow and ' Smart In Design. , The fashionable belt of the moment is about an inch and a half in width, and Is made of black patent leather decorated with a buckle to match, or with an antique silver one. A perfectly plain belt has its votaries, but in some' cases an introduction is made of tiny white button trimmings, which look very smart Indeed when the but* tons are clustered at the back in a pyramidal form designed to give grace to the figure. Narrow satin belts are being issued also, and some of the dressmakers Introduce by their means a contrast in colors to the rest' of the costume, using shades of pink, blue and mauve most dextrously folded Into the narrow compass at their command.
